SAOpdx: Quality Cost Management

Website

Description

The software quality industry needs to move away from finding, reproducing, documenting, prioritizing defects and validating fixes. We need to move to preventing defects. Ian will introduce a quality-based strategy that reduces total quality costs, increases profit, and makes QA work fun and rewarding based on work by Juran, Crosby, Deming, Krasner and his own experiences.
